Samsung Galaxy Note7 Launched in India at Rs 59,900

Samsung had announced the Note7 at a global launch event recently and now the company has finally pulled the wraps from its India offering. The Samsung Galaxy Note7 is launched in India priced at Rs 59,900 and will be sold through both offline and online retail channels. In the meanwhile, the device has received rave reviews and is touted to be the best in class, something the Note series is known for.

Galaxy Note7 packs a 5.7-inch QHD Super AMOLED display and draws power from the Exynos 8890 alongside 4GB of RAM. Design wise the Note7 for the first time resembles the Galaxy S series, thanks to the warped edges and the overall revamped aesthetics. On the storage front, the Galaxy Note7 offers 64GB of internal storage along with an option to expand the memory up to 256GB, courtesy the microSD card which makes a comeback.

The imaging end is taken care by a 12-Megapixel primary sensor with a f/1.7 Lens aperture, Optical Image Stabilization. The secondary sensor shapes up in the form of a 5-Megpixel unit alongside OIS. The Note7 has many firsts to its name, it is also the first device in the Note series to feature IP68 water and dust proofing, a feature that the Samsung users swear by. Stylus has been the signature of Note Series and with Note7 Samsung has made some amends. The S-Pen is now slimmer, more sensitive and is laced with a better software. Also, don’t fret if you put the S-Pen another way around, it will still not break the holster.

Furthermore, the Note7 also impresses with its IRIS scanner, Knox security and the secure folder feature. Backed by 3,500 mAh battery pack Note7 runs on Android Marshmallow. Yet another useful feature is the ability to scale down the resolution in order to enhance the battery life.

The new Samsung Galaxy Note7 will be available in Black Onyx and Silver Titanium. Preorders will start on Aug 22nd and the device will be available from September 2nd onwards. Furthermore, if you are among the first ones preordering the Note 7 the Samsung VR will be yours for a discounted price of Rs 1,990. Additionally, Samsung will also be bundling the free Reliance Jio preview offer for 90-days along with the Galaxy Note7.
